Help Please! - FTP Put() Exception : Invalid PORT Command - Indy 9

Subject:Help Please! - FTP Put() Exception : Invalid PORT Command - Indy 9

I am trying to upload a file by FTP in Indy 9.

FTP.Connect works fine
FTP.ChangeDir() works fine
FTP.Put(LocalFileName,RemoteFileName) give me an exception "Invalid PORT
Command"

on tracing the code it seems the port command is a local port being
assigned, not the remote port.

Any ideas? I have to get this project out ASAP and this is the only problem
I am having (so far). I have disabled my software firewall for testing and
my WS_FTP program has no problem connecting to the same site and uploading.

Also, can a remote port number be specified as par tof the .host property
using server:port or do I need to use FTP.Port := to specify an alternate
remote port?

Thanks for any help and happy new year to all!
